"Boots Drop into
&apos;12 Race Soon
The governor of Texas is
finding a receptive audience
among some donors and sup-
porters looking for a strong
GOP presidential candidate
in next year's race. Politico
says Governor Rick Perry
has started calling Iowa Re-
publicans about a possible
2012 campaign. Not that long
ago, he had them standing
at the Iowa Republican
Leadership Conference
where the audience started
chanting, "Run, Rick, Run."
Perry wowed the crowd
when he declared that "the
liberty that inspired our
fledging nation to throw off
the chains of oppression" is
"being constrained daily by
new regulations, obligations
that seek to empower gov-
ernment, not the people."
As one national newspa-
per stated, "In contrast to
President Obama, Governor
Perry has an answer when
he's asked where are the
jobs: 'Right here, in Texas.'"
Federal Government Vs.
Pennsylvania Family:
Guess Who Wins???
The U.S. government was
right to claim I0 rare gold
coins each worth millions
from a Pennsylvania family
back in 2004, a jury recently
decided. The family handed
the coins over to the feds to
verify they were real, and
the government then argued
that since the U.S. Mint
never officially released the
420 "Double Eagles," the
coins in the possession of
the family for decades must
hav'e been stolen and re-
mained the property of the
government. Only one of
these coins has ever been
sold and it brought in 47.6
million at an auction in
2002.
The Federal District Court
will rule on a motion that
the government is the right-
ful owner of the coins. The
family is expected to appeal
the decision. I think things
aren't looking good for them,
are they? Doesn't the gov-
ernment have the burden to
prove the coins were stolen?
I guess not, huh? Remem-
ber the old saying? "We're
the government and we're
here to help you!" SURE!!!
Election Photo IDs
State legislatures across
America have passed a
number of laws requiring
photo identification to vote,
a move supported by Repub-
licans and as usual opposed
by Democrats. Those sup-
porting the idea say it will
cut down on voter fraud, but
opponents say it will keep
the poor, the elderly and the
young from voting because
these groups may not carry
identification on them.
Some opponents of the lib-
eral stripe call this new leg-
islation a calculated strategy
to hold down voter turnout
among liberal leaning
Democrats. However, state
Rep. Pat Harless, R-Houston,
who sponsored the voter ID
measure at the State Capi-
tol in Austin, Texas, said
that it is "just a way to help
protect the integrity of in-
person voting."
America Continues
to Grow
Go to any shopping mall
and watch folks walking
around. It appears that obese
people are everywhere. I
wasn't surprised to read that
30 percent of people in 12
states were fatter than they
should be. Obesity is a grow-
ing problem in America. No
state reported obesity to be
below 20 percent. Partly I
feel it is due to the fast food
craze and partly, I blame the
computer where people just
sit on their butts all day long
and play games, go on
Facebook or whatever.
I remember someone I
knew who told me how tired
they were after jumping
across so many roofs. When
I asked them what roofs,
they said the computer
game they were playing. I
looked, laughed and told
them the only exercise they
were getting was to their fin-
gers on the keyboard.
By the way, this person
was rather chunky which
shouldn't be a surprise to
anyone. Too bad they don't
have games pretending folks
were eating food because
that might be the only way
these sad folks will ever get
the skinny on their weight.
PRAYER TO THE BLESSED VIRGIN:
(never known to fail) O most beautiful
flower of Mount Carmel, fruitful vine,
splendor of Heaven, Blessed Mother of
the Son of God, Immaculate Virgin, assist
